MSc in Economics and Business Administration - Supply Chain Management

By taking a “supply chain” rather than “firm” perspective, the SCM concentration enables future managers to consider the consequences of decision making, from raw material extraction, production, wholesale, retailing to final consumption. Companies like Apple, Procter & Gamble, Amazon, Novo Nordisk, Lego, and Maersk have built their business models on this notion. Leading companies have increasingly focused on their core activities and outsourced non-core activities to contract manufacturers or other types of suppliers. They have become experts, internally by tearing down the functional silos that separated finance, procurement, production, marketing, logistics and sales, and externally by orchestrating end-to-end value creation. This is what supply chain management is about.
